Relationship with the Local Community
 
お客さまとのふれあいを大切に、地域社会への貢献を
　As corporate citizens, city gas utilities are keen to maintain contact with customers and contribute to the development of local communities. Culture classes, cooking lessons and environmental events are typical examples of their efforts to strengthen local ties. Community links are also forged by sponsoring charity concerts, hosting field trips by students and giving lectures at schools.
　In cooperation with the Information Center for Energy and Environment Education, the Japan Gas Association conducts seminars and produces educational materials (supplementary readers) about natural gas for children. Teachers can use these materials in “Comprehensive Learning Hours” and similar extra-curricular programs.

　National FAmily Cookinng Contest
 

The “WithGas Club” has held the “WithGas: National Family Cooking Contest” every year since 2007 as a part of dietary education, encouraging people to return to home cooking, by recommending a life with the kitchen at the center of the home.
　The “WithGas: National Family Cooking Contest” is an opportunity to learn about cooking and dietary education in a fun, casual way. This contest consists of local preliminary rounds, and demonstration contests held in approximately 100 sites including the showrooms of city gas companies throughout Japan.
The demonstration contests offer opportunities for families to learn more about
cooking, and a variety of original food using local specialties is presented.
Through this contest, the Japan Gas Association is contributing to local communities by promoting dietary education.

The “WithGas Club” is a group of four organizations related to the living environment (housing
manufacturers, kitchen/bath manufacturers, gas appliance manufacturers, and gas companies),
established in June 2006. Its mission is to show society ways of creating better houses and lifestyles.
